Question
I have this very tall house plant-tree and it has dark green curly leaves and the trunk is not that thick but it branches out and when you don't water it the leaves turn yellow and fall off, what is this plant called I have had it for 37 years and I love it. It was originally only 8 inches tall not its well over 18 feet in my hall way which is over 25 feet tall. Please help me to figure this plant out and what is his name.

Sincerely,
Lili

Answer
Lillian,

The most common house plant tree is a Ficus Benjamina. You can go to Google or your favorite search engine and enter that then click on images to compare pictures to your tree. If that is not your tree I will need a couple of pictures to identify your tree for you. Send them to [email protected] and put Tree Identification in the subject line. Good luck.
